Ann Arbor for Easter Brunch - April 4, 2010

The best all you can eat, Easter Brunch and what a great town to have Easter in, Ann Arbor MI. We will start of by having brunch at 11:00 am and then head over to Birds Hill Nature area and Keubler Langford Park for an afternoon walk to walk off the brunch. $30 includes brunch, taxes and tip at a fabulous Gandy Dancer. It's a little pricey, but I hear it is the best brunch in the area and far worth the price.

All religions welcome!

Walking shoes with a hard sole will be needed, along with waterproof pants and jacket, hat and gloves or mittens just in case the weather is on the colder side for the walk.

I have made reservations for only 15 people, so I need a financial commitment by March 27th. Easter is early this year and that is about a week before Easter. On Monday of that week, I will email out detailed information about the day's activities. If you are coming from out of town, I will help you set up accommodations and give you detailed directions to the restaurant and to the walking areas. Hope you can join me!

National Zoo,

Lincoln Memorial,

Smithsonian Museums,

United States Botanic Garden,

National Mall and Memorial Parks, and much, much more!

The trip will start Saturday night at a restaurant where the group will meet and we'll provide information about the 5 days of activities. Your 5-night stay will be in a hotel in the Heart of Washington, D.C., close to the capitol and the White House. Your hotel reservations will already be made and all you have to do is check in after 4:00 pm and meet us for dinner. We will be visiting numerous locations in the DC area, the biggest benefit is almost all of the locations we will be visiting will be free!

As simple as that! Dinner, Saturday night will be included in the cost, as well as, 3 other dinners. In total, the trip will include 5 breakfasts, 4 dinners and 5 nights in a double-occupancy room, with private bath.

What a fun thing to do right after the big crowds of the Cherry Blossom Festival are leaving. If we choose, we should still be able to see the Target Tidal Basin Stage - Cultural Performances, on Sunday, the last day of the festival. If you get to DC early enough on Saturday, you should be able to see the National Cherry Blossom Festival Parade, which starts at 10:00 am along Constitution Avenue from 7th to 17th Streets.

 

This is such a great place to go at this time of the year!
